A Trial of Archons

 is a quest in Tyranny.

Synopsis
Tunon is displeased with the chaos that emerged from Vendrien's Well, and believes that one of the warring Archons may be principally responsible for the civil war that now grips the Tiers. As you travel the Younger Realms, take note of any evidence of negligence, incompetence, or outright treason found within the Disfavored or Scarlet Chorus.

Walkthrough

 * This is the overarching quest covering Act II. The goal is to gather evidence against either of the Archons, which relies on your decisions made during the Conquest and Act I in Vendrien's Well, as well as your actions in Act II.
 * This quest can still be done on an Anarchist run, if Betray Alliance is invoked after Act I.
 * Tunon will request a status update after two territories are claimed for your side. You can present some evidence and provide a preliminary finding, but it is not binding.
 * Should you transit into an Anarchy run (from a Disfavored or Chorus run) before this meeting, you'll gain some Wrath with Tunon.
 * The evidence gathered will be put to use in Final Judgment.
 * Remember that in non-Anarchy paths, you can only gather evidence from three regions in Act II.
 * Logically speaking, you'll want to convict the Archon leading the opposing faction (since you have ways to subdue your faction's Archon).
 * In the Rebel and Anarchist paths, since you can get the Voices to submit via Verse's personal quest, Ashe is the logical target to convict.

Conquest

 * Scarlet Chorus recruits were permitted to engage in a Tiersman festival - colluding with the enemy during a time of war.

 * The Voices of Nerat unleashed the Archon Sirin, who sowed chaos and even enthralled a Disfavored soldier.
 * The Scarlet Chorus attempted to bribe you to get iron weapons during the Conquest.

Vendrien's Well

 * The Voices of Nerat consumed Graven Ashe's imprisoned son during the siege of Vendrien's Well.
 * This fact can be uncovered during the final conversation with the Archons in Ashe's tent, before the Archons clash.
 * This piece of evidence requires you to have a higher Favor with Ashe than with Nerat, and is mutually exclusive with the one against Ashe, i.e. Ashe trading prisoners with the Vendrien Guard for lengthy ceasefires.

Conquest

 * Graven Ashe sent Cairn to destroy Edgering Fort in the realm of Apex. The destruction cost the Scarlet Chorus many potential recruits.
 * Disfavored soldiers killed Sages who were recruited to the Scarlet Chorus.
 * The Disfavored attempted to bribe you to get iron weapons during the Conquest.
 * The Disfavored were ineffectual at getting Cairn, the Archon of Stone, to follow orders.

Vendrien's Well

 * Graven Ashe traded Disfavored prisoners with the Vendrien Guard in exchange for lengthy cessations of violence. He hoped to retrieve his son, who refused to be released before his fellow soldiers.
 * This fact can be uncovered during the final conversation with the Archons in Ashe's tent, before the Archons clash.
 * This piece of evidence requires you to have a higher Favor with Nerat than with Ashe, and is mutually exclusive with the one against Nerat, i.e. Nerat consuming Brennix.
 * On the Rebel path, you can uncover another hint of this piece of evidence from Tarkis Arri at Vendrien's Well Citadel during The Oathbreakers, before the combined assault of the Disfavored and the Scarlet Chorus begins.
